Flik: Leave her alone, Hopper! [hops out of the bird] The bird was my idea! I'm the one you want!

[Hopper releases Dot and snaps his fingers and Thumper beats up Flik and Hopper makes him stop]

Hopper: Where did you get the goal, to do this to me?

Flik: You were... you were gonna squish the queen.

[everyone gasps]

Dot: It's true.

Hopper: I hate it when someone gives away the idea.

[Thumper kicks Flik hard]

Hopper: You piece of dirt! No, I'm wrong. You're an ant! [to the other bugs] Let this be a lesson to all you ants. Ideas are very dangerous things. You are mindless, soil-shoving losers, put on this earth to serve us!

Flik: I've seen these ants do great things. And year after year, they somehow manage... to pick food for themselves and you. So-So who is the weaker species? Ants don't serve grasshoppers. It's you who need us!

[The ants gasps and chattered]

Flik: We're a lot stronger than you say we are. And you know it, don't you?

[Hopper slaps him to the ground and prepares to kill him when Atta gets in the way]

Hopper: Well, Princess!

Molt: Umm, Hopper? I hate to interrupt, but, um--

[The ants look angirly at Hopper]

Brian: Surrender, Hopper. You're outnumbered.

Hopper: You ants stay back!

[But they all hold arms together]

Molt: Oh, this was such a bad idea!

Atta: You see, Hopper, nature has a certain order. [hovers up to him] The ants pick the food, the ants keep the food, and the grasshoppers leave!
